Smells

I'd guess my favourite smell would be of Emma Watson's pies cooling in her windowsill in one of the firts episodes. Makes me hungry just thinking about it. Or the pleasant whiff of Aunt Bee's and Ms. Edwardses roses in one of the last episodes. I'd ask for one to put in a jar of water on my

I have a wound that just won't heal so my wound doc recommended daily hyperbaric oxygen therapy. You're put in a clear tank for almost 2 hours and surrounded by 100% oxygen for healing. About the only things you can do are sleep and watch tv. I notice that M-F 3 out of 6 of us are watching

MAyberry

I read the Ron Howard bio From Mayberry to the Moon...and Beyond and I highly recommend it. The book has nothing but good to say about our Opie and it covers his life pretty well. Book was written in 2006 or thereabouts so it isn't recent but we all can be proud of both Ron and his family,

Books

Has anybody here read Ron Howard: From Mayberry to the Moon...and Beyond? It is next on my to be read list. Does it tell good things or does it recycle trash from the tabloids like he secretly smoked dope or hated Howard McNear? He didn't as far as I know. I'm reading the Don and Andy book

Mayberry books

Just purchased Ron Howard: From Mayberry to the Moon...and Beyond: From Mayberry to the Moon...and Beyond Kindle Edition by Beverly Gray. I hope she doesn't trash talk him. Have any of you read it? I think it starts with his first role as a babe in his mama's arms in a movie she was in and it

Thank you for sharing that link, Aunt Bee. Here is another one http://metv.com/stories/11-rare-behind-the-scenes-photos-from-the-andy-griffith-show Some I'd seen but others were brand new. I esp. Like the ones showing Mr Griffith in his civvies talking to Mr McNear in his civvies. Sent from my

New book I'm reading

I'm reading Talk of the Town (A Welcome To Daily, TX book 1) on my Kindle. One of the characters is a Hollywood type who describes Daily as "town that looked like Mayberry-well-preserved-on-a-studio-backlot". Even the town deputy is Barney like, handcuffing innocent people, locking his keys in

Old tv shows

Just because I do not recall them as much and no reruns around much except middle of the night on MeTV I'd like to see reruns of Eddie's Father, Family Affair, My Three Sons, O & Harriet, the firts years of the Lucy Show, and Make Room for Daddy. ___

Ronnie Howard

Haven't seen these posted but if you go http://www.emmytvlegends.org/interviews/people/ron-howard you'll see comments from our Ronnie Howard about TAGS & AG himself. He seems like such a nice person that if I met him out and about in public and tried speaking to him that I bet he'd talk to me.

Where would u live

If you could live anywhere in Mayberry would you prefer A living in town like Andy or Thelma Lou B living in the country like Jeff Pruitt or Sam Jones C a boarding house like Barney had with arms Mendlebright D deep in Kelsey's woods like Ernest T or The Darling Family E near Kelsey's Lake like

Long term performers

I'd guess the longest career to be Ron Howard. Certainly the most successful tho the majority of it is as a director, not an actor. Otherwise I'd guess the Albertson siblings. Jack who played Aunt Bee and Andy's cousin, and his sister Mable who was Howard Sprague's mama Sent from my iPad

Last night's episode

Don't it just clench you right in the heart to see Barney disparaging Rafe Hollister's singing in the first quarter of the show, only to support him once the mayor decided Rafe was not to represent Mayberry in the musicale? Barney could have been portrayed as a poor sport throughout but he

How do I get the TAGS ringtone from my iPad to my Samsung phone? I mainly need a link to the real theme. I don't have a smartphone or text just a plain phone though I can Bluetooth it. Any help greatly appreciated Thank you Marie Sent from my iPad

Mayberry sighting

Reading Angel Lane by Sheila Roberts and one of the three main characters compares her hometown of Angel Falls, WA to Mayberry. Another compares it to Bedford Falls without Mr. Potter. That started me to thinking. Did Mayberry have a Mr Potter? Somebody who truly didn't care about others? Even

Things that make ya go hmm

I never understood why Aunt Bee's speciality was Nesslerode Pie, a NY pie no longer sold. No idea when it went out of favour but from all of my researches it was an NYC dessert. I suppose the writers were from NYC and nobody thought twice about the pie name. Sent from my iPad Marie

Fife/Phyfe

After seeing today's episode about the descendant of Nathan Tibbs and hearing Barney claim relation to Duncan Phyfe saying sooner or later someone had to spell it right I decided to look up Duncan. Wikipedia had this: Born Duncan Fife near Loch Fannich, Scotland, he emigrated with his family

Allan Melvin

Best known to me as Sam the Butcher Sgt Hacker, or Barney Hefner Allan Melvin portrayed several characters on TAGS Doc Malloy (his girl's his partner), a Hotel Detective in Raleigh, Jake who worked with Hubcaps Lesh, the Sgt who tried to recruit Ernest T, the escaped convict who ruined Andy's

Floyd sighting

I'm watching the movie Bundle of Joy starring Debbie Reynolds and Eddie Fisher on TCM. DEbbie finds a baby on her doorstep and drops it off at a foundling home. The head with f the home, Mr Appleby is played by Howard McNair acting nothing like Floyd. I love finding TAGS actors in other shows

Chicken a la King

Congrats on the Chicken a la King. Can you also make white beans, Johnny cake, Nesslerode Pie, and other dishes mentioned by Aunt Bee. Always wondered what Chicken a la King was. Must Google the recipe. The N pie, too is a puzzler, tho I noticed that they ate somewhat fancier in the color

Decent shows

Cedar Cove on The Hallmark Channel is good, decent viewing and it is based on the novels of Debbie Macomber. She also appears in Daily Guideposts I can't wait to see Rachel vs Guy Kids Cook off on The Food Network. These kids know more about cooking than I do. Some might object but I'm

Mrs Mendlebright

Lipstick

Ok ladies, surely I'm not the only one to ask. Does anybody know what brand of lipstick Thelma Lou used? While I'm currently without a darling person of my own, I am sick of drinking my sweet tea only to have the lipstick come off on the glass or the straw. Thelma Lou's lipstick lasts through

County Nursing in Mayberry

It appears to be that there's no benefit in personally knowing the county nurse in Mayberry. They never offer help when needed. Case in point 1) Opie pretends to be sick so his paw won't go out with Nurse Peggy. Why didn't she suggest coming over to check on him? Why didn't Andy ask her to?

Opie played baseball and football. When Andy Barney were invited to join The Esquire Club the men discussed golf. I don't recall tennis being mentioned or basketball. Sent from my iPad ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com

Prisoners

Barney is the most obvious one since he jailed himself in the Citizen's Arrest episode. Otis was jailed many times. I'd say Allan Melvin but I suppose you mean characters and not actors. Aunt Bee, Opie, Mayor Pike, they were all jailed by Barney and appeared in more than one episode. That is

Alumni sightings

Watching an old movie on TCM. Ron Howard's pal Glenn Ford, Barney's fave actor, was married to Debbie Reynolds. Among the faces in the movie were Aunt Bee (Francis Bavier) who was married to Goldbrick Wheeler. Came in after it started so I don't know the name. Eva Gabor was also in the movie.

Opie and Adults

I was born 1960 so was raised in the 60's and 70's down here in Cajun country Louisiana. We called adults Miss Emily or Mr. Amadee and not Mrs Cormier or Mr. Marsiglia. My mama did too. Had I been in Mayberry it would have been Mr. Floyd or Deputy Fife. I never understood Opie's calling adults

Favorite line from the show and alumni sightings

The one I think about often is the one Barney tells Opie: Ya see, Opie,it ain't always the material things that make a person rich. There's love and friendship. That can make a person rich, too. May not be 100% accurate but my memory is shot. The comic lines are great also. Mayberry gateway to

Using The Squad Car
